Even with all of these abuses and usurpations - and more - the United States of America is still genuinely the best country in the world and YOU have the power to make it better. Local action = national impact.
What abuses and usurpations would you add to the list?
And how are you planning to take action on a local level?
While the government does not prevent use of hormones, antibiotics, etc, for livestock, because these chemicals have FDA approval, the burden of proof is on the farmers who do not use them, instead of the other way around. For a producer who does not use them, they have to go through inspections and verifications to label their product as hormone and antibiotic free, while the producers who do use these products do not suffer the same inspections or labelling pressures to prove. This seems assbackwards. I can sell eggs on a small scale, but have to jump through hoops and invasion of privacy to sell them as organic if I sell to the local grocery stores. There is no requirement to list all the things the animals are given, from antibiotics to hormones to other chemicals. I could feed them recycled manure in gnetically engineered soy, no problem. If I do not, I have to prove I do not.
